A geometric sans built from squared, superelliptical contours with consistently rounded corners and uniform stroke thickness. Curves resolve into softened right angles rather than true circles, giving bowls and counters a rounded-rectangle feel. Terminals are blunt and clean, with minimal modulation and generous internal apertures that keep forms open. The overall rhythm is steady and grid-like, emphasizing crisp horizontals/verticals and compact, engineered proportions.
Works well where a compact, technical voice is desired: interface labels, dashboards, signage/wayfinding systems, and product or hardware packaging. The strong geometry and even color also suit headlines, branding marks, and short copy that benefits from a structured, engineered look.
The tone reads technological and pragmatic, with a retro-futurist flavor reminiscent of terminal, arcade, or instrumentation lettering. Its rounded-square geometry feels friendly but still mechanical, balancing approachability with a disciplined, utilitarian character.
Likely intended to deliver a clean, systemized sans with rounded-square construction for modern tech and industrial contexts, while maintaining legibility through open counters and consistent, grid-friendly letterforms.
Distinctive superellipse-based shapes show up across rounds (C, O, Q, 0) and in the squared shoulders and joins of letters like n, m, and u. Numerals and capitals appear designed to align evenly, reinforcing a systematic, display-forward texture in blocks of text.
